hrs@ poked me via IRC and it seems that it's only on ftp-master there
was a problem with a stale ja directory and not on builder (where the
docs are built).  I cleaned out the ja directory and made a symlink
manually.

I very intentionally didn't create it for "bn" when that was added
since I don't see the point in having them for "new" translations.

Notice the variable in the Makefile which creates the symlink is
called "COMPAT_SYMLINK".  The only reason I see of those symlinks is
to preserve old URL's, other than that I think they just make the
directory listing of our doc/ directories (both on ftp and the web
site) harder to navigate.

Anyway, that's my 0.02$CURRENCY.
